Chapter 154: The Common Sense of Humanity

Yun Ye attempted to destroy the bronze cauldron.

As a result, he was instantly knocked back, every bone in his body creaking as he nearly suffered severe injury if he hadn’t activated his Heart Fire in time.

This was the work of the law realms; the spiritual realm couldn’t retain such power in the external world with such might.

“Extreme Cold Great Formation, activate!”

Yun Ye disregarded the warning and set up the formation, forcefully attempting to destroy it.

The black and white colors rapidly accumulated, infecting this space.

Out of caution, Yun Ye did not immediately infiltrate the bronze cauldron but continuously built up his power.

When he reached the peak, and even the Extreme Cold Great Formation couldn’t control it, he finally released his restraint.

The moment he let go, the black and white energy eroded the bronze cauldron, with some of the blood transforming into black and white.

The four talismans then activated, bursting forth with blinding light, showcasing part of the power of the law realms.

This power resembled an explosion suddenly occurring in a confined space—extremely suppressed yet powerful—seeking to radiate brilliance and sweep away the All Things Silent force!

However, the outcome was quite different; although this law realm power was strong, it still paled in comparison to the piled-up silence force, which pressed it down, turning it into a ball of dazzling light frozen in black and white, which, despite being merely black and white, was still filled with beauty.

Yun Ye felt no regrets as he froze everything along with the longevity pill, transforming it into a black and white landscape.

Then, he shook the silent world, causing the entire black and white world to shatter into ice shards, with not a single trace of its original form remaining.

Flames rolled over, thoroughly concealing the evidence; the Ice Element was his trump card, worth hiding.

In the end, Yun Ye still had to face the most complex problem.

How should he arrange these more than three hundred people?

This was a battle between paths and reality.

If he insisted on the path, Yun Ye should immediately take these people away to Tomorrow Village and start from scratch, trying to awaken their self-awareness.

But the reality was that if Yun Ye chose to do this, the ancestor of the Chao family would undoubtedly come to Tomorrow Village, bringing great disaster. Even if the ancestor of the Chao family were to be foolish and not come, Tomorrow Village’s resources were far from enough to support these three hundred people, requiring risky efforts to cultivate more land and search for resources outside more frequently.

These were immense crises.

Tomorrow Village clearly could not bear it.

“Is this the choice between gain and loss? Is this reality? Is this… profound despair?”

Even with power far beyond ordinary people, Yun Ye still felt powerless. His strength might be sufficient for him to live freely, but it could not let him ignore everything and forcefully achieve his thoughts and desires.

He understood why there was saying about benevolence not commanding troops; it was a consideration of reality versus the path…

Yun Ye stood up, waved his hand, and activated the Moon Disk, and then he unleashed the Spirit Law, leading the pregnant women from the crowd into the Moon Disk, thirteen in total, followed by the children, totaling twenty.

Then, the Moon Disk slowly closed.

This was his choice.

Yun Ye had never been a hero who could perform miracles; he represented the intermediary between reality and ideals.

He wasn’t foolish; why would he do something impossible? That would only bring death to everyone.

As a leader, one can calmly face death, but one must never ignore the difference between reality and fantasy.

Yun Ye took a step, intending to leave.

But halfway through, he stopped, turning his back to the dazed and confused people, and began to speak.

These individuals probably couldn’t understand what he was saying, yet Yun Ye still wanted to share his thoughts with them.

"I cannot save you, and you likely have never thought that someone should save you. After all, throughout history, you do not seem to be human but more like some sort of livestock…"

"However, this mistake will not last forever; the truth has always existed, just lacking an executor. I will repay your blood feud with a hundredfold revenge against Baishi Town, whether for you, for me, or for the future!"

"This is my promise!"

Boom!

It felt as if a thunderclap echoed in the void, as black lightning suddenly struck Yun Ye, revealing the Dao Sword with its entwined symbols of water and fire, hit by the black lightning, causing electric arcs to ripple and engulf him.

Tomorrow floated into existence silently, gazing in astonishment at the black lightning on the Dao Sword.

After a moment, she exclaimed, "Master, what have you done? Such a tremendous echo… such astonishing Resentment… Is the great disaster upon us?"

Yun Ye shook his head.

Countless dissonant voices resonated.

"Kill…"

"Kill us!"

"Revenge for us… this hatred…"

"An eternity of woe!"

It was quite peculiar.

Yun Ye seemed to traverse time and space, witnessing many scenes.

He glimpsed how this Blood-and-Flesh Alchemy Factory was established and the various experiences it endured, all flashing by in a moment.

Yet each time, countless close-ups of death proclaimed the blood and tears that permeated this place.

What was astonishing to Yun Ye was that it had been in operation for a full fifty years.

Every ten years, a longevity blood pill could be produced.

And the longevity blood pill he had just frozen was the fifth, a crucial item for the ancestor of the Chao family, so vital that even with the arrival of the great disaster, its production could not be halted.

Yun Ye had disrupted the ancestor of the Chao family’s significant plan, so he would inevitably have to face this "great cultivator" of the law realms.

And this was just one of the issues.

Chao Zichong, as a practitioner of Poison Techniques, had also stained his hands with countless lives.

The Blood Law spiritual body he aimed to refine required gathering ninety-nine Water Spiritual Roots infused with intense Resentment, which referred to negative energy, not merely hatred. Generally speaking, infants provided the most, followed by pregnant women.

The cruelty was beyond words…

Before Chao Zichong’s death, he had already gathered eighty-seven lives. Perhaps heaven wanted him to die immediately, and Tomorrow coincidentally chose the left hand.

"In a world where one without power is treated like pigs and sheep, death becomes a release?"

Yun Ye turned around, looking at this group of dazed individuals who showed no signs of self-awareness.

He understood that if he did not kill them now, they would only welcome a more desperate hell.

This was their fifty years of blood and tears pleading.

"Don’t let us… continue to be nourishment…"

"We must… have revenge!"

The echoes of their fading voices resonated.

Yun Ye could hesitate no longer.

As he clenched his fist, flames gathered, overwhelming everything in front of him.

With Yun Ye’s strength, killing ordinary people was truly instantaneous; even their bones turned to ashes in a moment.

In terms of outcomes, Yun Ye was undoubtedly slaughtering them.

However, the Dao tool resonated.

Part of the black lightning merged with the Dao tool, this sword that illuminated the sky and shone down on the earth, while figures appeared — blurry and indistinct, but undoubtedly human shapes.

"Master, the echo has increased again. Is this also considered practicing our path?!" Tomorrow said.

"This is a reckoning; nothing garners their acknowledgment more than avenging grievances, even if they do not understand the concept of Tomorrow’s discussion…"

"This is the common sense of humanity!" Yun Ye declared.
